The Airline Terror Plot

As someone who has travelled to and from the USA as often as twice per year I was startled at the news of theAirline Terror Plot that was planned by a group of terrorists to simultaneously blow up 10 or so, aircrafts bound for the USA.I have read stories about so many travellers plans being destroyed because of delays and what not. It's hard not to be mad as hell, but it's easy to thank God and the smart Police and security operators who have stopped what could have been a mass murder in the skies.I'm glad that most of them were caught and pray that the other 10 (or how many others) be caught too.I was readinghere that this could have been the next "big one" since the attack in New York on September 11th. They way it's worded is true yes but so scary, of what "could have been".Those of you who said travel prayers for your loved ones that day must have been so grateful that the plot never eventuated.Would this scare stop you from flying? For me.... no, I am going to fly when I need to.Here is a good overview fromAmerican Papist .
